The Importance of Being
Earnest
By Oscar Wilde
November 17
- 21, 1999
Directed by Doobie Potter
THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING EARNEST was
produced by Carpenter Square Theater and presented as part of the Stage Center Presents series.
Guest star Lee Meriwether played the role of Lady Bracknell.

Lee Meriwether as Lady Bracknell
Considered Oscar Wilde's masterpiece, EARNEST was penned in 1895 as "a trivial comedy for serious people". Witty and stylish, Wilde creates a world where "every man is debonair and epigrammatic and every woman lovely, save the dowagers who are witty and greatly enjoy their own paradoxes." The plot revolves around an ingenious case of "manufactured" mistaken
identity.
